The former half-cat
We used to have half a cat. Her name was Cleo or Chloe or something; we were never quite sure. Joanne just called her Miss Kitty, which seemed to suit her fine. She actually belonged to a neighbor, but she spent about half her time at our house. Then they moved. And they had the nerve to take the cat with them! Unbelievable. We miss you, Miss Kitty!
Have I been doing any coding lately? No. But have I been trying to do any coding lately? Also no.
But I have been doing something fun. Meet my new GPS-based NTP time server! Here it is:
Pretty impressive, huh? It’s a Raspberry Pi 4 sitting on the desk in my office. And here’s its GPS receiver:
Also impressive, hiding there behind the plant in my office. That’s impressive to me because it can see enough satellites to function, even though it’s only relatively close to a window.
The GPS receiver was very cheap from Amazon and I’ve had the RasPi for years. It’s been idle for quite a while.
Fun project. More coding later. Gotta focus!
